General form for difference of two squares
\n" ); document.write( "\"a%28x%5Ec%29-b%28y%5Ed%29%29%29%29%0D%0A%7B%7B%7Bx%5Ec\"
\n" ); document.write( "The equation is a perfect square if a and b are perfect squares and c and d are even numbers. the factors are:
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%28a%29x%5E%28c%2F2%29%2Bsqrt%28b%29y%5E%28d%2F2%29\" and \"sqrt%28a%29%2A%28x%5E%28c%2F2%29%29-sqrt%28b%29%2A%28y%5E%28d%2F2%29%29\"
